Default launching an audi

i drive an a4 1.8t FWD (stock internals)
Just wondering what RPMs i should dump the clutch for a clean launch
im sick of burning my clutch up with this trial and error, i put my clutch linkage in the danger zone the otherday and really dont want to do that again.

Thanks!!

Alex

~4K RPMs

The real question is, who are you trying to race in a stock 1.8T FWD B5?

Hold gas pedal down until the tach needle is pointing at the 7000 mark , dump clutch or move shifter from neutral to drive & see how that works.
